The madam opened the brothel door and saw a rather dignified,
well-dressed, good-looking man in his late forties or early fifties.

 

"May I help you?" she asked.

 

"I want to see Valerie," the man replied.

 

"Sir, Valerie is one of our most expensive ladies. Perhaps you
would prefer someone else," said the madam.

 

"No. I must see Valerie," he replied.

 

Just then, Valerie appeared and announced to the man that she
charged $5,000 a visit. Without hesitation, the man pulled out five
thousand dollars and gave them to Valerie, and they went upstairs.
After an hour, the man calmly left.

 

The next night, the same man appeared again, once more demanding
to see Valerie. Valerie explained that no one had ever come back two
nights in a row -- too expensive -- and there were no discounts.

The price was still $5,000.

 

Again the man pulled out the money, gave it to Valerie, and they
went upstairs. After an hour, he left.

 

The following night the man was there yet again. Everyone was
astounded that he had come for a third consecutive night, but he paid
Valerie and they went upstairs.

After their session, Valerie questioned the man. "No one has
ever been with me three nights in a row. Where are you from?" she
asked.

 

The man replied, "South Carolina."

 

"Really" she said. "I have family in South Carolina."

"I know," the man said. "Your father died, and I am your
sister's attorney. She asked me to give you your $15,000 inheritance."

The moral of the story is that three things in life are certain:
1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Being screwed by a lawyer .
